The Clippers and Thunder meet for the second time as Los Angeles looks to avenge the early season loss.
Los Angeles is 6-4 on the season and has won all four games since the 105-92 home loss to Oklahoma City. The Clippers have beaten the Spurs (113-104), 76ers (110-98), Kings (107-98), and Raptors (105-103) since the loss, but those teams have a combined 14-26 record.
Oklahoma City is 8-2 and suffered their second loss of the season last night to Golden State (127-116) and lost Chet Holmgren for 8-10 weeks in the process (hip). This is the third game in four days for the Thunder and the third back-to-back of the season (2-0). The last time Oklahoma City played a back-to-back was against Los Angeles, which they beat 105-92.

NBC Sports Betting Best Bet
Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) likes the Clippers to keep it close in Oklahoma City:
“When these teams met the first time, the Thunder were on the second night of a back-to-back, similar to this place and Los Angeles had two days off.
Being down Chet Holmgren is a big deal for Oklahoma City on short notice against a team that has won four straight. Despite Los Angeles’ four wins coming against teams a combined 14-26, I think the Clippers could keep that within 7 points.”
Here are the best bets our model projects for the Clippers and the Thunder:
